Eurobowl 2009

Team Italia is proud to announce Eurobowl 2009.

WHEN: The tournament will take place on November 7th and 8th.

WHERE: Eurobowl will be held at Admiral Park Hotel. (www.admiralparkhotel.com). The place is 20 minutes drive far from Bologna airport Marconi and 30 minutes far from Bologna city centre. The address is: Admiral Park Hotel - Via Fontanella 3 - Zola Predosa – (Bologna) To getting there, the hotel has a shuttle which can bring you from the airport to the venue for 25 euros (29 euros if the journey is between 22.00 and 6.00). The shuttle has 8 places, so it’s about 3 euros each person. Just tell me if you want the shuttle to take you to the venue.

RULES: Team tournament. 8 people for each team. Maximum 2 freebooters for each team. 8 different races for each team. In case of odd teams, there will be a freebooter team like last years. We’ll give priority to foreign coaches for the freebooter team. We’ll use the rulebook which will be the official one at September 15th. In case of LRB 5, it will be possible to play: Slann, Underworld and Chaos Pact. TR 110 with no inducements Matches: 6 rounds, resurrection Rounds: Swiss system for teams and Swiss system for players Skill progression: after rounds 1, 2, 4, 5 it will be possible to give a normal skill to a player. After round 3 it will be possible to give a “double” skill to a player. Maximum 1 skill to a single player. You can pick skill after you’ve seen who you will play against. Scoring: each victory is 1 point, each draw is 0.5 points, each loss is 0 points. Team scoring will be made adding up single player scores plus the “Team Bonus”. Team bonus consists in 1 additional point in case of team victory, 0.5 points in case of team draw and 0 points in case of team loss. For example if Ireland beats Sweden 5-3, Ireland will get 6 points (5 for single results + 1 for team bonus) and Sweden will get 3. If Ireland draws 4-4 against Sweden, both teams will get 4.5 points (4 for single results and 0.5 for team bonus)
